[RESOLVED] Large file upload

[usamaalam]

Hello everybody,

My client wants the option of large file uploads in his website. I changed the constant upload_max_filesize to 5M on my system and it works, but how can I do this change on the hosting server using my control panel or any other option.

Thanks.

ini_set() should allow you to change the upload_max_filesize to 5M, but this needs to be added to your code.

I tried this but it doesn't work for me.

ini_set('post_max_size','5M');
ini_set('upload_max_filesize','5M');

Thanks.

Some hosts will let you place a php.ini file (which are limited) in dirs.

Maybe check your hosts forum or place a php.ini file (with the code below in it) in the same dir which the script will be running in:

Example:
upload_max_filesize = 7M
post_max_size = 50M

Thanks. That worked for me.
